Being in Canada, where the currency has dropped fully 20% relative to the US greenback, I'm being a lot more conservative about buying.

Impulse purchases via ebay, and forums - since I don't necessarily follow the financial pages - are what initially forced my attention to the slide.

What might seem at first like a deal, suddenly (factoring in also the rise in USPS rates a while back)...not so much.

Still do OK with the UK online retailers...looking at some Veloflex Master 25s at $88 CDN delivered from Ribble. Probably order those soon.
